can you post the whole email you got from DS?

idle temps = temps while pc is sitting doing nothing

load temps = temps while pc is under heavy load/heavy use (45 minutes of intense game play, or heavy benchmarking, etc).

only temps under load matter, cause those are the ones that are gonna be high.

Hmm...now my paranoia is kicking in.   I hope that the did not purposely omit the load temps due to the fact that they were too high.  I'll give DS a call.  Thanks again, DST4ME.

Don't worry, they test the system so they catch if anything is wrong and high temps is one of them, if your temps were too high you would not have passed stages 5 and 6

I just got my the same e-mail, mine didn't have temps either. Also do they ever give you a tracking number when it's shipped so you can see where it is?
